50 Best Wine Bars near Renton

“Excellent food and service“

“Drumroll Wine is such a lovely addition to downtown Renton! With a great location, great space & atmosphere, great wines, & a great staff - - it truly is a great meet up location! I really enjoy their special events, too! Highly recommend!“

“I drive all the way from Federal Way to shop here. The owners are very helpful, nice people. Free wine tastings. They also have good beers on tap. Check out All Things Wine and the Stupid Wine Deals are worth the trip.“

“The owners are the best. Good service and great food.“

“I’m fairly new in the city. I’m a graduate of Northwest Wine Academy originally from Houston Texas. I went into The Wine Alley looking for a Loire Valley Chenin Blanc but Jim’s knowledge and passion led me to a phenomenal Sardinia Vermintino. Thanks Jim for making me feel welcome I will continue to do business with you! Cheers my friend!“

“Absolutely FANTASTIC food and the service is top notch! Our server Veronica was FABULOUS and David the bartender made my daughter the fanciest mock tail! Treat yourself and enjoy the experience!“

“The peaceful atmosphere here combined with delicious food makes the meal memorable.“

“This place is a hidden gem! It’s my favorite spot for a sexy but laid back night out with my husband or a cozy get-together with my girlfriends. If I had to describe it, I’d say picture yourself in someone’s Parisian apartment, wearing a black silk lace top, sipping wine, and enjoying a skinny cigarette (though I don’t smoke).

The waiters here are incredibly knowledgeable, even about the pronunciation, and they have an amazing selection of wines. I honestly wish I could keep this place to myself.

I hope they really bring the vibe they’ve created indoors to their outdoor space one day!“

“I was celebrating someone’s birthday here and the staff were so accommodating and sweet. They gave us some wine on the house and coordinated the lighting the candles for the cake I brought in.

The food and eats were great and the atmosphere is superb especially on a sunny day.“

“Another fabulous dinner with Chef Frank and the team and dessert with Sophia!!! It doesn’t get any better anywhere than at the 909!!! The food is top notch and fantastic!!! Frank and the team are so spectacular!!! The ambience is so wonderful!!! And Michelle - my lemon drop connoisseur - says Sophia makes the best lemon drop of anywhere she’s ever been!!! THANKS for the great dinner tonight!!!“

CAVATELLE: kabocha squash crema, roasted cipollini, parm

Vegetarian options

Menu rotates, new dishes and cocktails!“

“Nice people’s and great place for have fun 😎“

“I was in town for a special event, I haven't been here before and was amazed with every aspect of my experience. our server Charles was utterly fabulous. he was very knowledgeable, thoughtful and prompt. he made it feel like we were old friends. the steaks were perfectly cooked. I am 4 and 1/2 years sober, and to go out and enjoy an exquisite meal and only drink water can be a drag, but you all had an amazing selection of mocktails, my partners and I enjoyed immensely. I took the time to thank Charles for everything and got to meet Justin, letting him know how wonderful everything was. this will definitely be a regular stop anytime I visit.“

“Great expresso martini! Try 2!“

“The best macaroons I have ever tasted #bestofseattle“

“Fantastic wine selection paired with lovely charcuterie options. Love going there to see Friday evening music, especially when Chris Stevens is playing!“

“Excellently prepared and delicious food. Our waiter, Christopher was outstanding. Michal(sp?) was also amazing. So helpful and entertaining. Will definitely go back. Capital Grill did not disappoint. Best place in Seattle if you are looking to have steak. Thank you for a lovely evening.“

“Otherworld is dynamic and always hits the spot. It takes many forms throughout the week, from chill spot to read alone, to a great date night before cooking dinner at home or dining in cap hill, or an end of night stop with DJ spinning vinyl and shoulder to shoulder energy. Oh, and the wine is truly awesome. I highly recommend joining the wine club, it's the best wine club in town. Every wine we've had there has been fun and unique.“

“We loved the frozen drinks! The vibe was chill, the staff were welcoming and friendly, and the food was tasty. We will be back!“

“Excellent coffee, one of the best i’ve had in Portland which sets a pretty high bar.“

“This place is amazing! The atmosphere is phenomenal, making it a perfect occasion for a date night or a get together with friends. The wine selection is spectacular, and the chocolate is the best I’ve ever tried. Definitely a place to check out!“

“What a great spot! Great wines from underrepresented groups. I didn’t eat, but the food looked delicious. The staff was warm and welcoming from when I walked in throughout service. It was also notable how respectful the staff were to each other, this really added to the comfortable atmosphere.“

“What a terrific experience! The laid back vibe, the excellent wine, delicious tapas and friendly staff more than willing to make personalized recommendations just made our evening. Highly recommend the shrimp ceviche, ahi lettuce tacos, oysters with hot sauce and the olives. What a great find. If I lived in Seattle, I would be a regular.“

“I had such a great experience at JOEY Southcenter due to our lovely server McKenna. She was patient although I am extremely indecisive and she helped me make some great choices!“

“Decided to try out Elsom this weekend as a pre-flight tasting before we headed down to the wine walk in Edmonds. Was pleasantly surprised! I think I’m most enjoyed the mall back vintage 2020 I believe. The girl that helped us was very friendly and observant to our semi large group and make sure everybody’s glasses stay full, even though we all kind of walked in at different times. Super excited to hear that they’re expanding or moving into Woodinville as that is our normal stopping grounds, but I do look forward to trying out their varietals again in the near future. Check this place out! FYI, did not try the food, but Jesus it smelt tasty my dudes!“

“An absolute gem in Seattle. Ben treated us like family. Extensive wine list of amazing area wines and a fantastic menu of snacks to accompany the wines. Great value and a relaxed atmosphere. A must do!!!!“

“BFV is a fun place. The wine is good, and the waiters know what they are doing. What’s not to like? 😀“

“Tried this very special “takeout only omakase sushi box”, Edomae style ( use cured/aged fish, and red vinegar seasoning in rice). The executive chef, chef Ryo, has worked in many renowned restaurant including Michelin star sushi restaurant “Sushi Sho”. Before joining this new restaurant “Ltd Edition Sushi” in capitol hill, he worked side by side with chef Nakazawa-an icon of edomae style in Japan, at both Sushi Sho Tokyo and Sushi Sho Honolulu. The sushi omakase box and kids fish bowl are both very sophisticated, the curing and aging techniques brings out the deep complex flavor of each fish and gives each fish this extra tender texture, the taste profile as such is hard to find here in Seattle. Chef sake flight ( we tried Haneya Junmai Ginjo and Hidakami Junmai today), one is floral and one on the dry side, pair with his sushi very well. Sushi is in a very elegant wooden box and everything you will need for the experience including a separate soy sauce dipping dish is prepared for the guest. This is, truly, a perfect omakase takeout experience. 💕💕😋“

“Great wine bar pouring Alexandria Nicole Cellars wines from Horses Heaven Hills AVA!“

“One of the most unique wine bars in Seattle. If you want something different this is the place to go. Phenomenal selection of Italian wines that you could probably only find here.Incredibly knowledgeable staff was incredibly friendly and stepped through every wine they served.Definitely take your wine loving friends here.“

“Amazed by the team at Off Alley bringing magic out of a tiny hot kitchen line. Braised rabbit in a verjus sauce with herbs, grapes, and radish. Glorious pork toast. Incredible! It's a very small place with a counter seating inside, but that is a way more fun way to experience this special place than sitting outside on the patio. On Mondays, Seattle legend chef Jason Stratton, helps out and adds a few of his famous dishes to the menu so that is the night to go for the full meal deal. Wine from unique producers make excellent pairings along with the perfect cocktails. Even a cheese course. A perfect local restaurant.“

“Valentina’s is my favorite wine bar. The atmosphere is so chic and the music playlist is always spot on it sets the best mood the second you walk in.
They have an incredible variety of wines to choose from but what truly makes this place special is the owner, Valentina. She is incredibly sweet and goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience.
An absolute 10/10 hidden gem.“

“Delicious! Little drafty and close quarters. Loud party in the in closed porch and the bartender was uber busy. With that being said, he was excited about the food, friendly, and delightful to deal with. Once the food came, I was blown away by the flavor. Fried brussel sprouts were so good my coworkers and I were laughingly fighting over who got to finish them. Everyone loved their meals. I had the Lamb Ragu (no cheese and it didn't suffer for the lack of it) and it was so good I'm afraid I'm going to be chasing to find a red sauce that good again. Can't say much about the drinks since I only had a perfectly traditional hot toddy but I would definitely try more. Absolutely recommend this and apparently it's side by restaurant 909. I might recommend calling ahead for a reservation there. Even on a Tuesday night this place had a well deserved full house.“

“Princess and Bear has quickly become one of my favorite places in Seattle. The owners are amazing, the events (like trivia) are a ton of fun, and the wine is UNDENIABLY the best you can get outside France. I signed up for their wine club after one glass. It’s hard to believe such a classy and gorgeous tasting room exists in this business park, but I promise you, it’s a hidden gem. And, it’s kid friendly!!“

“So much fun and so knowledgeable! You can get a Champagne flight, a sparking wine flight, and or a wine flight. The champagne and wine was delicious, and I really appreciated the knowledge they shared. The music is also lots of fun and the place is a comfy place to hang out.“

“I walked up to Surrell I was thinking of French Laundry. High praise!!

Intimate comfortable outdoor seating we were seated at. With a drink as we waited a short time for our table.

As we sat at the chef counter I could understand the logic of the pacing.

We were entertained and impressed with the ten courses and wine pairings.

Gorgeous dining room. Impeccable service.

Well done!! 👍“

“What an incredible experience at Browne Family Vineyards Bellevue!

The wines were outstanding, and the whiskey selection was equally impressive—each pour showcasing the quality and craftsmanship the Browne family is known for.

What truly set this place apart, however, was the hospitality. The service was warm, genuine, and refreshingly authentic.
A special thank you to Brendan, who made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. His knowledge, recommendations, and friendly personality added so much to the experience and made the evening feel personal rather than transactional.
It’s rare to find a place that combines exceptional wine and whiskey with such sincere and memorable service.
We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bellevue.“

“Delicious cocktails and eats, friendly neighborhood place. cozy, when you can go inside!“

“High quality drinks in a super cute, open, aesthetic space that's perfect for working remotely or studying! The matcha has good flavor and the coffee is robust. The portions for the snacks are kind of small, but they'll keep you fueled for your work sesh! 10/10 would recommend! I've been here a few times and it's becoming one of my favorite spots to work or chat with friends“

“Intimate and nice music, good wine too of course.“

“Fantastic experience. Anyone who can take a humble dish like fries and elevate it has my respect, AND tell people y’all ain’t getting ketchup is my kinda guy. Fresh catch of sockeye salmon was perfection. 💯 recommend“

“Great food and great service. Our little is already asking to go back. She loved her ceaser salad and Chocolate cookie and said she really liked our waiter, he was funny.“

“The best Italian food in Seattle. The focaccia is probably the best bread I’ve ever had. The heirloom tomato and nectarine marinara is a revelation. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Fantastic food, vibes and service. Moored here in our boat and looked forward to going there each day. Thanks“

“This place is a gem! My friend and I stopped here to grab a bottle of wine, and ended up getting some cider and snacks. They have a great selection of natural wines from all over and reasonably priced. They also have a great selection of local ciders. The staff person working there was very friendly and helpful -- happy to provide suggestions and share knowledge. The food was also quite good. Highly recommend the gluten-free brownie!“

“Drew and his team were great. Tasty food and excellent service! Cozy little spot and nice vibe.“

“Such an amazing restaurant, great staff and delish food.“

“Ramie is such a beautiful and unique Vietnamese fusion restaurant in Seattle! I really love how they take traditional Vietnamese flavors and ingredients and give them a creative, modern twist without losing the comforting flavors that make Vietnamese cuisine so special 🥰

Everything we tried was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and had such a nice balance of flavors. The atmosphere is also warm, stylish, and intimate, making it a great spot for a date night, special occasion, or even just a nice dinner with friends.

One of my favorite things about Ramie is that their menu changes with the seasons. I think that’s such a fun concept because there’s always something new to look forward to and try. Even though we had a great experience this time, I already have a reason to come back and explore more of their new seasonal dishes!

Definitely recommend Ramie if you’re looking for Vietnamese food that feels familiar but also fresh, creative, and elevated. Can’t wait to come back and see what they have on the next seasonal menu! ❤“

“Food and service was amazing. Highly recommend“

“The Shop Agora is Seattle's very best restaurant. Nikos' food and wine selection is a hidden gem - unbelievably more delicious than the approachable price tag would suggest! But the priceless part is Nikos' thoughtful entertainment. He curates the small restaurant's crowd each evening, from a collection of happenstance strangers to neighbors who've raised a glass together. Tip well. Nikos and his team earn it every time.“
